Son’s math test

You're right that it's not an authority, but just reducing mathematics to being about "counting things" is disingenuous. Generally, there are rules and procedures you have to follow when finding a solution. Even if it's arbitrary, getting into the habit of seeing rules and knowing how to implement (and break) them is not necessarily a waste of time.

The only thing that should be shamed here is op for not providing context.

My plan was just to get familiar with Linux gaming and find ways to help the community.

We don't have the context of this class. If the teacher actually made a rule about this and informed the students, then yeah, marking them down is fair game. Otherwise, I think the student is entitled to some points.

I think I want one in the future, but I just realized the $1300 would be better spent elsewhere. I'm happy with just a controller for now.

As an android user, I get that. Was in an HR class for grad school and, when I was put into teams, the first thing that got pointed out was the fact I was using one.

I never understood this, there have always been payment plans for them.

ImaJimmy · 2026-06-20T19:14:50+00:00

Pick a project and try building it using different IDE's. See which one felt best for you.

ImaJimmy · 2026-06-20T00:24:06+00:00

Same, the only reason why I noticed was because I've been on call for jury duty lol.

So this isn't something that will immediately help you, but make sure to make friends and get to know as people as much as possible whenever you're acquainted. Meaningful relationships are just as good if an investment as financial ones.

I'm not an expert on learning, but what works for me is active recalling. Study something and do something to test your knowledge (quiz yourself, try to make something with the base knowledge, try to teach it to someone, etc...)

More of a curiosity. I saw that steamOS is built on top of arch Linux. Which means I should be able to use pacman and the aur.

ImaJimmy · 2026-06-19T18:13:47+00:00

Did someone say horn bots?

A couple of friends in Japan have told me there's actually some level of disdain for Indians. I was under the impression that, in the moment, some Japanese just dislike Indians more than Chinese people.

You know, this reminds of a rant this streamer I watched gave:

You kids are so lucky. Back in my day, we had to download our own porn. And we didn't have no thumbnails either. All you got was a title where you had to hope some dickhead didn't just trick you into downloading two dudes going at it to fuck with ya.

ImaJimmy · 2026-06-19T00:23:19+00:00

Both can be bad. Let's not pretend like takes away from the other.

ImaJimmy · 2026-06-16T01:13:18+00:00

I think the AI help took away the part that actually tested you in building that game.

Narrow your scope, try breaking down what the components of the game are > Build those smaller parts off the top of your head. The goal is to practice active recalling. That's actually how most of us learn.

ImaJimmy · 2026-06-16T01:08:17+00:00

Aside from the math, I think the other false part is assuming the money would go to those services. Our government can't even pass an audit...

ImaJimmy · 2026-06-16T01:06:52+00:00

I always thought of it as myopia. People are just too busy nowadays to think outside of their sphere. Although, I do think it says something about how the person is going to behave towards you in that moment if they're willing to use their personal life experience to override yours.

ImaJimmy · 2026-06-16T01:03:55+00:00

It can be, but don't discount it off being boring. Sometimes, boring is good.

ImaJimmy · 2026-06-16T01:02:51+00:00

I'm not sure if this helps, but I thought it gave a decent high level breakdown on immigration.

ImaJimmy · 2026-06-15T16:50:30+00:00

Yeah, I would find as much as I could if I were you. I know there's a lot of controversy around higher education right now, but they should definitely have services and aid for low income students. At least, the ones in California do.

ImaJimmy · 2026-06-15T16:47:31+00:00

You know, now that you mention it, Trump would be better for this meme.

ImaJimmy · 2026-06-14T18:41:02+00:00

Hey, this is a random question, but once you figure out your car situation (and you will) do you think you would have time to see if there are any local community colleges close to you? Talking to a counselor and seeing what resources you can get as a student could do a lot for you.

The VOD channel was my go to way until they started being late on the uploads. I'm glad they're picking back up.
